Will be back here a little bit

 I had neglected this blog a bit because it seemed a bit unnecessary. I had my own private, personal blog to care for (see https://www.michaeljaytucker.com/blog) and other people weren't writing for it as much. And, besides, Twitter seemed a quicker and more effective means of communication.

But, well, now Twitter seems to be going down with all hands (thank you Mr. Musk). I will continue to post there, but I'll also try to post here a bit as well--just in case Twitter ceases to be viable or becomes unwelcoming for those of my moderate disposition.

So, stay tuned. There may be more coming here. 


cheers

The Georgia Guidestones Never Hurt Anybody

Image
Special Note: more details on the origins of the stones have come to the fore. See below for an update. So we learn that the Georgia Guidestones have been destroyed by someone, as yet, unknown. The reality, of course, is that whoever paid for them, was a bit kooky, but clearly he/she/they were no villains. The stones carried what were simply some platitudes of the sort we see all the time on greeting cards. They didn't hurt anyone and did no wrong. Yet, somehow, the Right saw them as unspeakably evil, and used high explosives to destroy them. How on earth is this possible? How is it that the Right has grown so mad, so utterly insane, that it would vent its fury on stone? And thus achieve nothing while endangering others? But, one thing. It is a perfect metaphor for what the Right...and particularly the Christian Right...has become. And the danger it poses to us all.

  Head on over to Xcargo ! Hi, Everyone, As you know, I maintain multiple blogs. There is this one, “Crisis and Cure,” and there is my private blog, a.k.a. “ explosive-cargo ,” which I maintain at my website here:   https://www.michaeljaytucker.com/blog And there are a couple more in other places. Well, quite frankly, I have found that I am a little overwhelmed. I have some real trouble keeping all these different blogs going, while I also do my little videos, and do other writing, and, well, you know, eat and sleep and whatever. So, I’m going to try to do a bit of consolidating. This blog is going to merge with my personal blog, Xcargo. I will continue to post here for a short while longer, but by 14 Feb (Valentine’s Day!) I will shift over mostly to https://www.michaeljaytucker.com/blog Don’t worry! I’ll still be doing political stuff and saying nasty things about the Former Guy, and QAnoners, and Moscow Mitch, and all the rest. I’ll just be doing it there rather than here. In other

 Crete: place of dreams and wonders Special note: Today we are doing something different. Instead of just talking about politics, we will begin a new series by the talented Colette Hartwich. In it, Ms. Hartwich will discuss her current project of finding a new home on the island of Crete. Stay tuned for more about her adventures in Greece.   By Colette Hartwich As a family, we consider Crete (Greece) our second motherland. With its magical diet, Crete is linked to longevity, fabulous jewelry techniques and of course olive trees. Crete, embedded in Minoan culture, is also the birthplace of the labyrinth and the Minotaur, or at least the legend of it.   For seven long years now, we have been looking for the ideal spot for a house: close enough to the sea as there is nothing better than a fresh morning dive straight from your porch; close enough to a village, so that, in recent years the frequent forest fires, at least to a part one could rely on some sort of fire brigade; with a few oliv
